In the future it is probably better to not go with a low fee if you want a faster transaction. Title: Re: Transaction hasn't confirmed in 22 hours!

I was transferring out of an online market and I'm pretty sure it didn't give me the option to set the fee manually. Title: Re: Transaction hasn't confirmed in 22 hours! Post by: auswalk on December 13, 2015, 01:40:41 AM This "fee" shit is only getting worse, especially during extraordinarily high volume times which out the blue to started thursday nite. What happens when there are no more BTC to be mined? Also I don't understand why the block size can't be increased tramatically to fix this nonsense. The value in mining is not the fees, it's the 25 BTC.
This is nothin but slowing down adoption in a big way, especially when other crypto currencies DO NOT have this problem at all. Title: Re: Transaction hasn't confirmed in 22 hours!

The value in mining is not the fees, it's the 25 BTC. Increasing the block size is not trivial and there are many considerations in doing that, particularly the fact that it WILL be a hard fork. That in itself is contentious because HARD FORKS CAN BE BAD.This is nothin but slowing down adoption in a big way, especially when other crypto currencies DO NOT have this problem at all. There are no other currencies which have the same transaction volume as Bitcoin, so they aren't even comparable. If you want to compare two things, you need to eliminate all of the other variables which can affect the outcome. The must be compared ceteris paribus, all else equal. Take your off topic ranting elsewhere, we don't need it in tech support threads. And maybe learn some stuff about what you are talking about /Off Topic OP, about your question, since you were unable to set the fee, there are only a few options available to you. You could attempt a Child-Pays-For-Parent transaction in which you create a transaction that spends an output from this transaction but you pay a fee that is enough to cover both transactions. Or you can wait and hope that it confirms. Or you can wait for it to eventually (few days usually) be dropped by the network, making that transaction as if it had never happened. If that happens, then contact whoever sent you the transaction and ask them to resend it with a higher fee so that it gets confirmed. Title: Re: Transaction hasn't confirmed in 22 hours!

The transaction fee is less than recomended https://blockchain.info/tx/63cf3675598838c1e34d88747140b888e137f49840fe523e22a1625e5a6f4304 your fee only 0.0000113 BTC, i think the normal fee is 10.000 satoshi In my opinion if you do not want to pay the fee of the transaction should use coinbase know xapo where they do not charge in each transaction Title: Re: Transaction hasn't confirmed in 22 hours!

I think a Child-Pays-For-Parent transaction is a little too complicated for my little brain so I'd sooner wait and see what happens. As long as the bitcoins aren't forever lost then it's no biggie.

I can See your transaction is now already included in a BLOCK ! Lock Time Block: 387937 Anyways Its taking long because u included a very low fees.. And there might be a Long queue with high fees waiting for their confirmation.. So u have a low priority because of your low fees !! If u want it to confirm faster next time include a fees higher than 0.0009 Btc.. AFAIK the LOCK TIME is when the inputs can be spend and use in the network again but it doesnt mean the transaction is already included in a block/confirmed. If u want it to confirm faster next time include a fees higher than 0.0009 Btc.. 90k satoshi is too much IMO, the basic 10k satoshi per 1KB of transaction size is enough in the current load of the network Title: Re: Transaction hasn't confirmed in 22 hours!

That in itself is contentious because HARD FORKS CAN BE BAD. The latest buzz is "segregated witness" Does not require hard fork, and by separating sigs from main chain could decrease block size by 40%.. these are numbers from memory but Title: Re: Transaction hasn't confirmed in 22 hours! Post by: BTC LOVER on December 13, 2015, 06:04:28 AM You should use an minimum Transactions few of 1000satoshi /kb
<Anyways you might shut turn off your wallet for an Minimum of 12 hours. After this restart the wallet and let it going. The Transactions i think will get deleted and confirmed after your next Wallet action. Hope i could help regards BTC LOVER Title: Re: Transaction hasn't confirmed in 22 hours! Post by: lama-hunter on December 13, 2015, 06:36:59 AM Which Wallet are you using? Iam also seeing the tx few is very low. Try to increase it to get this goin.
Maybe you should use another Wallet ;) regards lama-hunter Title: Re: Transaction hasn't confirmed in 22 hours! Post by: shorena on December 13, 2015, 09:48:53 AM You should use an minimum Transactions few of 1000satoshi /kb -snip- Thats no longer true. If I ask bitcoin core for an approximation for the fee per kilobyte I get: Code: block | fee Title: Re: Transaction hasn't confirmed in 22 hours! Post by: calkob on December 13, 2015, 01:19:27 PM Yeah buddy i think the transaction fee is to low, what wallet are you using sometimes they are set to send a lower than required transaction fee, just watch out for that the next time you send. ;)
